Plastics Recycling Show Asia (PRS Asia) incorporates a two-day conference, covering the latest trends and developments in the sector, as well as reflecting on the most recent legislation, challenges and opportunities. The conference brings together the entire cross-section of the value chain, aiming to promote collaboration and to accelerate the transition towards sustainable and truly circular plastics recycling industry.

PRS Asia 2024 presents an opportunity to share significant innovations within plastics recycling with our attendees. We would like to invite companies to give presentations around the following topics:

• Market developments and demand for recycled feedstock in the region
• Infrastructure for feedstocks and capacities
• The growth in plastic waste regulatory activities in the region
• Introduction of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) in Asia
• Measures to achieve recycled content targets
• Technological developments to meet market needs
• Key developments within both mechanical and chemical recycling in the region
• Enhancing and harmonising plastic waste collection & sorting
• New investments, projects and collaborations to increase plastics circularity in the region
• Advanced recycling technologies
• Boosting the performance of recycled materials
• The role of additives in a circular economy
• Solutions and innovations in packaging materials
• Developments within processing and machinery
• The role of digital tools in plastics recycling
• Design for recycling
• Building advanced recycling facilities in the region
• Spotlight on recycling of specific materials; films, PET, PVC, HDPE, PP 

The criteria for selection of papers will include:

• Contribution to industry knowledge base - is this truly a significant advance?

• Timely and relevant topic - does the presentation address current or developing concerns among polyurethane industry professionals?

• Value - will the paper highlight real progress with long-term benefits?

• Objective – does the proposed speech offer a balanced and non-commercial perspective?

• Originality

Speech proposals that offer significant evidence-based developments in these respects have a far higher chance of being selected for inclusion on the programme. Speech proposals covering purely historical ground, with an overly narrow focus and those that are deemed too sales-driven in approach are likely to be rejected.
